AI Dungeon's sex filter angers fans by blocking unintended content
Latitude, developer of the procedurally generated game AI Dungeon, implemented a test system to block generation of sexual content involving minors. The system incorrectly blocked many stories with no such content, sparking community outrage over privacy and censorship. Latitude acknowledged the test's imperfections and said it reviews flagged content to enforce policies and comply with law. The test system remains in place.
